| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | After the heavy snow had fallen across parts of the area, strong north winds increased, producing blizzard conditions. Numerous gusts to 40 knots occurred across the area. Once again, many roads were closed, including Interstate 29 from Grand Forks to the South Dakota border and Interstate 94 from Jamestown to Fargo. A snowplow, clearing Interstate 29 before it was closed, rescued about a dozen vehicles and cleared a path for them to a casino near Hankinson to wait out the storm. |
